Biography:
Bent Karl Jacobsen (March 21st,1934-2004), a Danish visual artist, joined the Gronningen group of artists in 1971, and his works have been exhibited in many international museums and galleries.
Bent Karl Jacobsen - "The Happy Painter" - trained as a toolmaker, but as an artist is self-taught. His interest in pop art and in exploring the artistic
contagion from the consumer society, led Jacobsen to travel to New York in 1971. US social and mental tensions were a lasting influence on his work they
left a split between figure, symbol and writing, which he has themed in his painting in the 1990s.
